<snip>
A total of six people were confirmed dead in a gunmans early Monday rampage through suburban Philadelphias Montgomery County, according to police.
Cops are searching for Bradley William Stone, 35. Everyone murdered has a "familial relationship" with Stone, a Pennsburg, Pa. man, the Montgomery County District Attorney said in a statement.
Stone was thought to be holed up inside a Souderton home, but when police barged inside they found an injured teen, not the suspected triggerman.
The gunman was described as a white man standing 5-feet-10-inches tall, about 200 pounds, with closely cropped hair and a red beard. He's known to use a cane or walker to get around, the DA's office said.
"Stone may be wearing military fatigues, in either sand or green color," the statement reads. "Stone should be considered armed and dangerous."
------------------
Among the dead is his ex-wife.

(62,325 posts)8. I wonder if those flags were 'made in China'. It always amazes me how
conveniently these 'groups' spring up, looking like something out of central casting of 'evil doers', fully equipped with expensive 'uniforms' (the kind we have been conditioned to see on 'terrorists') and then t here are the FLAGS and the POSTERS.
Remember all the little US flags in Kuwait and Iraq?
Someone is 'producing' these videos. Western style advertising. Maybe they admire the West so much they are emulating them?

That's gun country for you.
Sad isn't it?
